    This study was observational; it doesn’t prove that the type of protein available in a country’s food supply directly influences longevity.

    Gonna say the Pareto principle applies here, and the makeup of plant or animal protein sources is going to be largely negligible in terms of health.

    If you wanna be healthy: eat real food; don’t be fat.

      If you wanna be healthy: eat real food; don’t be fat.

      But… but… fat people are just big boned! And fresh fruit, veg and fish are so expensive compared to my cola, fries, burgers with delivery bought daily, and I just ain’t got time to stand and cook food for myself. I’m a busy chronically online person.
